Sep 26 forecast

New Orleans has generated far more yardage while injuries cloud key Las Vegas contributors, so the Raiders are meaningful underdogs to win.

New Orleans has the stronger early offensive profile, led by Tyler Shough and a high-volume passing game, and showed late-game resilience in Baltimore. Las Vegas counters with an unbeaten record, an exceptional pass rush, and a defense that has frustrated quarterbacks, preserving a credible upset path. Brock Bowers’ uncertain knee and Treydan Stukes’ absence weaken that path, making a Saints win the more likely outcome.

Points to Saints

New Orleans brings the substantially more productive passing attack.
Through two games as of September 23, the Saints averaged 305.5 passing yards while the Raiders averaged 204.0.
Brock Bowers’ knee injury threatens to remove or limit a central Raiders target.
On September 25, Bowers was questionable after two limited practices followed by no participation Friday.
New Orleans has already demonstrated the ability to finish a close game.
On September 20, the Saints scored 15 fourth-quarter points to defeat Baltimore 24-17 on the road.

Points to Raiders

Las Vegas’ pass rush offers its clearest route to disrupting Tyler Shough.
As of September 25, the Raiders pressured opposing quarterbacks on 63.6% of dropbacks, the NFL’s second-highest rate.
The Raiders have paired an unbeaten start with two comfortable victories.
By September 20, Las Vegas was 2-0 after defeating Miami 27-13 and the Chargers 26-14.
New Orleans’ weakened offensive line gives the Raiders’ pressure unit a favorable matchup.
On September 25, Saints starting left tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. was placed on injured reserve following high-ankle-sprain surgery.
